YOUNG-IL'S POV - (surprise!)
THE SOUND OF panicked cries had woken Young-il up suddenly. Wondering the source, he peered over his bed sheet as he saw where the noise came from - Suki. Her face was scrunched up, her lips parted as beads of sweat formed on her forehead. She was fast asleep, but clearly having some kind of nightmare.
Somehow, it pained him to hear. He was starting to like her company. The two of them had exchanged some deep conversations after the first task and it had made him feel almost relieved. Although part of him was a lie to every single player in the room, his story was genuine and she had shown him the care and support he had needed for quite some time. Suki was like an open book to him. He could read everything about her so easily. He knew her file, her player information, but he had no doubt that this girl genuinely cared for her friends around her. She had formed such great bonds in such a short time. Something he admired.
But that also made his heart shatter. For he wasn't Young-il.
Hwang In-ho. That was his true mask. Not the mask he would wear as the frontman, but who he really was to the world. A man with a story, a family, but most importantly a job.
A job he wanted to question so badly right now.
He was the complete opposite of Suki. These were his games. He was in charge of everything that happened. And while he was in charge, he couldn't protect her or anyone else for that matter. He couldn't stop them from getting killed. He had a duty to fulfil and he couldn't let anyone suspect that he cared about some of his players.
Another scream interrupted his thoughts as he decided to check on her. Pushing back his duvet, his bare feet hit the cold flooring as he walked over to the side of her bed, crouching down beside the metal as he called her name. "Suki?" He spoke softly, but she did not react. He placed a hand to her shoulder, giving her a gentle shake. "Suki, wake up." Her eyes opened as she let out a gasp, sitting up as fast as she could. "I didn't mean to startle you." She backed into the bed frame, making herself as small as possible.
"Young-il, it's just you." She breathed, her voice panicked as tears spilled from her eyes. "You scared me."
"I'm so sorry. You looked like you were having a nightmare so I just wanted to check in on you." Her breathing was elevated as she couldn't find the words to reply. Her arms wrapped around her legs as she buried her face deep into her lap. Her sobs echoing around them. "Do you want me to go?" He questioned her.
